About
Sociology is the scientific study of society, social institutions, and social relationships. It is the systematic study of the development, structure, interaction, and collective behavior of organized groups of human beings. The Department of Sociology offers its sociology curriculum to undergraduate students who want to pursue the systematic study of society from the micro level (the individual in society) to the macro level (the study of institutions). Students graduating with a Bachelor of Arts in sociology may enter graduate programs in sociology and social science; enter professional schools, such as law and social work; or enter careers requiring a bachelor's degree in the liberal arts. Counseling on programs and career choices is available within the department.
